My Experience

For over ten years now, I have embarked on a therapeutic journey with many people from all over the world and from different walks of life. It continues to be special for me to meet and get to know every one of my clients.

As a professional myself living in London, I have developed a special interest in working with high achieving and high striving professionals in the City of London who work in Financial, Legal, Media, Academic, and Consulting sectors. I have extensive experience offering therapy to individuals with difficulties related to organisational pressures, high expectations, stress, burnout, anxiety, depression, trauma, loss of meaning and purpose in life and difficulties in their relationships with themselves and others.

Over the years I have increasingly seen that transformational change and healing requires that we work with both our mind and body. We store a lot of distress in our body and by learning how to create safeness in our nervous system we can shift ourselves out of a state of fight, flight, and freeze. In turn this can bring about long lasting change to our beliefs about ourselves, others and the world.

In addition to supporting people to process past issues and repair painful emotional wounds, I am passionate about supporting people to discover, develop and embody internal resources, qualities and skills that so that they can move from where they are now to where they want to be. This has led me to expand my practice to offer coaching and I am now trained as a Somatic Life Coach too (click here if you are interested in coaching.)

During my time in the NHS I specialised in working in Early Intervention Services for people with psychosis and schizophrenia as well as supporting family members and carers in their caregiving roles. I chose to broaden my specialist focus to support mothers, fathers and carers with perinatal mental health problems such as postnatal anxiety, depression, loss of a child, and trauma during childbirth, and to help them develop strong bonds with their babies.

I also provide consultation and deliver supervision to trainee clinical psychologists and qualified psychologists. I have delivered a range of teaching and training to mental health teams and students on psychology university courses, and I also offer workshops staff teams in corporate organisations regarding good mental health and well-being.
